I was alerted by the Deaf Community that the supposed Sign Language "interpreter" at Nelson Mandela's funeral was signing nothing even close to South African Sign Language, but sets of repeated crude gestures which had nothing to do with what the speakers were saying.

It seems this FRAUD has been appearing as an "interpreter" in the past. For the ANC's 100th year anniversary, for example.

I don't speak Zulu, but the captions clearly match the "interpreters" gestures. You don't to understand ANY sign language to understand that!

Why this guy is at Nelson Mandela's funeral? Center stage? Faking "Interpreting" the speaker's speeches, even our President's with fake, made-up Hearie old ANC Gang signs????

Something's really ROTTEN in the South African governmant and the ANC

Sign Language does NOT have a typology attached to it. Note that it the reference is to South African Sign Language…that is the accepted standard. There is no such thing as ‘Zulu’ sign language. This man for whatever reasons has been put forth as something he is not.

I am surprised that you are just becoming aware of how rotten the ANC and all things associated with it is.

It’s a shame they had this fake sign interpreter put out a false story. Don’t they have press secretarys for that?

Good to see affirmative action works, not just here, but in South Africa.

In my opinion, this guy is PERFECT. Prior to Botha surrendering in SA, SA worked. There were jobs for EVERY COLOR, and you could enforce a contract there. The standard of living was much higher than it is today.

That a black man would stand up in front of the world and basically demonstrate the current level of incompetence that is SA is only fitting.

There were probably no qualified people of any color to do the job, so why not hire the same guy that Zuma used previously. This isn’t the guy’s first gig.

Martin Luther King is, or was, a chump. THE LAST THING we are ever going to hear about the legacy of MLK is,

“. . . will no longer be judged by the color of their skin, but by the CONTENT OF THEIR CHARACTER.”

THAT, and only that, is MLK’s true legacy. Down the memory hole with it, and Churchill, and Thatcher.
